Creating new company file in MoneyWorks

Assuming your financial year is from January to December; and you wanted to start recording your account into MoneyWorks from year 2012.

In the setting up new company wizard, Period setting, Set “Financial Year” to “Jan-Dec” and select “2012” in the “Start in” field.

In the Period management window, you will discover that MoneyWorks automatically create a period (Dec 2011) before your financial year, Jan – Dec 2012. The Dec 2011 period, which created by MoneyWorks, is to allow you to enter the closing balances as of 31 Dec 2011.
